You can test numpy as follows:
>>> import numpy
>>> numpy.test() # basic tests
>>> numpy.test(label='full') # all tests, including slower ones
>>> numpy.test(verbose=10) # verbose output
IIRC, there are not that many more tests with label='full' than with the
default for numpy (the difference matters for scipy).
